On The Needles

During a conversation with my seven year old granddaughter, she mentioned that she would really like a new pair of knit socks.  Of course, I said I would make her a pair!  There's nothing better than having one of your grandkids ask you to make something especially for them.  These socks work up quickly with worsted weight yarn and size 5 needles.  It's probably a good thing they are a quick knit, because once Miss Four gets her new socks, I expect that I'll be getting a few more requests for new socks from the other girls.

Ready To Quilt!

The t-shirt quilt for my friend's family is finally on the frame and ready to quilt!

Border...Problem Solved!

I have been trying to figure out how to put a border on this quilt for the past week or so. I was at my wits end while working on it last night and about to give up when Hey Jude came on the radio. Long story, but it's one song that always makes me think of Tami. Tears immediately came to my eyes, but I started singing along and out of the blue, how to piece the border came to me. I don't know if it was Tami letting me know how she would like the placement or not, but I'm glad the problem is solved!

Kits

Remember the Moda Sampler Block Shuffle that I started back before Christmas?  Don't feel bad, if you don't...I had nearly forgotten about it too!  I did keep up with printing the patterns, but because life got in the way, that was about all I was able to do with the project.  I decided the best way for me to keep moving ahead was to cut each block into a kit.  Now when I have a few extra minutes, I can just grab a block kit and stitch it together!
